Join a circle.

Join the zoom link, meet your Facilitator and get set up with your mic, camera and a cuppa.

Once everyone has arrived the Facilitator will explain the why, what and how of a men's circle.

We then run though the agreements of the space. These are the boundaries that create a trusting and safe container for the work. These are things like: confidentiality, non-judgement, honesty, presence.

Everyone is invited to share a score and a few words on how you're feeling, to get a sense of how everyone is arriving.

This is usually a breathing or embodied exercise to practice some emotional regulation. We call it centering because it's about getting back to your internal centre of balance.

To break the ice we offer a question for everyone to answer, usually inviting self-awareness on what you're currently working on, or a present challenge you're dealing with.

Each man gets around 5-10 minutes to talk, uninterrupted, about what ever you like. This is an opportunity to think aloud, get clarity and be heard by yourself and other men. You might bring something specific to talk about, or you can just take some silence and allow whatever needs to be said to come out.

Towards the end of your time, you can invite feedback from the other men. In our Drop-In circles this just questions.
In our Closed Circles you will practice a variety of ways to give feedback.

Everyone can share something a takeaway. It might be an insight, a feeling, a learning, or an action.

At end the circle we like to make sure you get a chance to regulate yourself, as sometimes we go quite deep, so this might be a bit of movement or breathing to finish.
